Meet the MASters℠: If I Could Fix the Schedules, I Would…

The final episode of Meet The MASters, titled If I Could Fix The Schedules I Would…, will feature Jonathan Aronie and special guest Judith Zawatsky, GSA’s MAS Transformation Program Manager. Jonathan and Judith will discuss GSA’s ongoing efforts to develop a strategic, comprehensive approach to the MAS program, as well as GSA’s efforts to respond to various industry criticisms. As always, these topics will be discussed from the contractor’s perspective and from the Government’s. Also as always, Jonathan will be ready with his list of highly relevant trivia questions. (And who knows what the topic could be on Election Day!) We hope you will join us.

Summary

We have great news! Jonathan Aronie, the co-author of the manual that is included with the Meet the MASters series, GSA Schedule Handbook, and a partner with Sheppard Mullin, has agreed to host the show, along with several of his Government Contracts colleagues. Jonathan is a dynamic speaker and truly the master when it comes to all things Schedules and government contracting in general. Additionally, certain of the episodes will be hosted or co-hosted by other Sheppard Mullin attorneys, including John Chierichella, a 40 year veteran of the Government contracts bar, and Anne Perry, a former GAO hearing officer and nationally-known Government contracts lawyer. We are confident you will enjoy the Meet the MASters Series!
